The Llt,Uigsac5r sincerely hopes that the
Presidents message will have the effect OF
lowering the price OF wool. Indeed it
would be sorely disappointed if It turned
out not TO have that effect. So far it has
not had this effect and the L!s!Liqsa"'r is
corresponding'y disappointed.
But our neighbor is doing all ne can to
make his predictions good in this section
at least ard is herOically trying TO bear
the wool market. Yesterdays htsNigs"c,r
made a great to do over the alleged utter
ances Of q wool buyer for an eastern manu-
facturer, who said his firm had called in
all their buyers and went on 10 dilate Cd
the alleged fact that wool must come down.
The Ia',ligepc,r quotes him rs saying:
81 tell YOU, there will be mighty little
wool bought here for good many months
to come, and it will have TO be sold low,
too"
The Hai.Hgsqc,r, in the Joy it felt at he
ing able to bring forward something to
show that President CLEvELAND's mes
sage had an in effect, forgot its duty 20 its
own section. IL forgot that il is the policy
Of the eastern wooden manufacturers 10 buy
as cheap as they can. II forgot that they
are elated over the chance they have TO
bear the wool market Bat the wool men
of this section who know that President
CLEvELAND's message has had 10 effect on
the prices of wool, will not forget the Lni,iti-
Qeacrr in the valuable aid it is giving the
men who want lower wool.
The wool market has not changed, nor
does it give any signs Of changing. The

An Electrical Baton.

Leading . chorus by electrical ap
paratus has been tried in Paris. The
current is used in beating time for the
chorus of an opera company while the
singers are behind the scenes. An cleo
trical baton, hung in = conspicuous
place, is controlled BY the foot Of the
leader Of the orchestra. who has also in
front Of him small duplicate, by which
he can see whether his foot is beating
the correct time. The electrical baton
does not actually move in space, but it
presents the appearance Of doing 50.
There are, in fact, two batons occupy
ing different positions, which on being
revolvcd by the action of electro-mag-
nets. present black and white faces al
ternately On ths background An Opt
cal illusion is thus produced exactly
equivalent to the movement of single
white baton in tho hands Of leader.
It is said that much grssesr precision il
obtained BY this device than where the
